History and Mystery: The Sheriff’s Home and Old Hancock County Jail
The third video in our historical series was created before the formation of The Old Jail Preservation Committee, which has raised over $300,000 for the restoration of the jail in less than a year. Previously, there was inadequate capacity in the EHS for undertaking such a project and, therefore, little hope for the future. Fortunately, as word spread in 2021, members of the community became concerned and took action to incredible avail.
